"Playtoe" is my favorite! So cute. I am always torn between sad and happy when Hannah learns to correctly say something she has said wrong (in a cute way) for so long.

does she remember Bet (bethany)? i agree with Lori about being sad at times when beth can pronounce things correctly- but that's why we write them all down, since we're such great mommies, right?? haha. i'm so behind on writing down things for these two precious girls!
sarah jane now calls bethany "Beeeee!"
